Jorge Lorenzo-Inspired Scooter To Break Cover At EICMA

Electric motorcycle manufacturer VMoto Soco is scheduled to unveil a limited edition JL99 electric scooter at EICMA.

Based on a teaser photo that shows the scooter silhouette, the motorcycle features Jorge Lorenzo’s signature JL99 lettering.

Lorenzo also recently shared a photo of him with the Vmoto Super Soco CPx.

However, according to reports, the JL99 editions scooter won’t be based on the CPx; instead, it looks like it’ll be based on the more petite CU Mini electric scooter.

Interestingly, Lorenzo’s unique collaboration started as a joke by the rider to the company management about a special edition scooter named after himself.

Funnily enough, it triggers VMoto to produce the limited edition model with the 3-time MotoGP World Champion.

The ex-MotoGP star is also scheduled to feature at EICMA with the scooter.

That's the first thing we like about the Eleveit Nirvana WP boots, but there are things we don't quite like either. Watch the video to find out! #Eleveit #EleveitBoots #MotorcycleReview

Oh the blasphemy! We called the Trident 660 a beginner's superbike, but we standby it wholeheartedly. The Trident is fast and a lot of fun, but it is also very accessible for anyone with just a little bit of experience. And there's not much to worry about either, it is not overly complicated and neither is it very big and heavy. Are u a newbie looking to trade up to a bigger bike? The Triumph Trident 660 may just be worth a look. #TriumphMotorcycles #TriumphTrident #TriumphTrident660
